Dean: And now, let the battle for the Championship between George Cluster and William Low begin, here on The Big Gambit Hour! Dayo, back to you!
DK: Thanks a lot, Dean! And welcome back to The Big Gambit Hour, and here we are, the Championship Match of our program, and it's going to be a whole lot of fun! And what's better is that both of our players have 1 Gambit Power Chip in hand, and someone is going to win a lot more when that player becomes our champion and heads to the Gambit Deluxe Board. Right now, though, we're got to get the match underway.
And the Championship Match works just like the Classic Gambit match with the legendary Wink Martindale, but there are a few differences. First of all, instead of asking questions, we're going to take turns by going through a series of puzzles in order to gain control of the cards.
And the way we do that is by picking a letter from the word "GAMBIT" here. Behind 5 of those letters are puzzles, and the player in control will get to choose one of those letters, and I'll explain how it works. If you are successful, and you will earn money to your Bonus Bank and more importantly, you will gain control of the cards, but be careful. If you are wrong, the money and control of the cards will automatically go to your opponent.
The one remaining letter will automatically earn you $100 and control of the cards.
After 4 of those letters have been picked, the items will be reshuffled and the board will be reset.
And we'll be taking turns back and forth until either one of you freezes, one of you achieves a Blackjack or a score of 21, or until one of you busts by going over 21. Now, here's something very important that you must know. In order to freeze, you must either take a card for yourself, or if your opponent passes over a card to you, as long as you don't go over 21, and you must be in the lead. Also, there are no ties in this match. If you decide not to freeze and continue playing the game, you will not be given the option to freeze again unless or until you receive another card, and that card places you in the lead, or keeps you in the lead.
Now, once one of you freezes, the other will be put into a "Sudden Death" situation, where I will now be asking you questions, and you will have 24 hours to answer the question in order to stay alive and earn as many cards as possible until you beat your opponent's score without going over 21, busting by going over 21, or missing a single question.
So if you either get a single question wrong, or miss the 24-hour deadline, or going over 21, and you will lose the game.
Whoever wins this first game will earn $500 to their Main Game Bank, and an extra $1,000 to their Bonus Bank.
And let's not forget that in this portion of the show, we have our Big Money Jackpot System activated, and it'll all be displayed here at my podium.
Now, 3 Jackpots are available. First, the Any 21 Jackpot. If you are able to score 21 in any combination with at least 3 cards, and you'll win the Any 21 Jackpot, which starts off at...
ANY 21 JACKPOT: $2500
(Bell Clangs)
$2,500, and for each game that it isn't won, we'll increase the Jackpot by $500. However, if you are able to achieve a Blackjack by getting an Ace and a 10 or a Face Card, and you'll win the Blackjack Bonus, which starts off at...
ANY 21 JACKPOT: $2500
BLACKJACK BONUS: $10000
(Bell Clangs)
$10,000, and we'll increase that by $2,500 for each game that it isn't won. Now, the 3rd and final Jackpot is a bit more challenging, but more rewarding, and that is the Lucky 7 Super Jackpot.
Seeing that on a slot machine will certainly make you feel lucky, but believe it or not, having 3 7s in your hand also total 21, and having that in one hand is extremely difficult to do, and as such, we've decided to add more decks into our game. In fact, we have 6 decks of playing cards in this game, and we've split up evenly into 2 sets of 3 decks in 1, or a total of 156 playing cards, which 2 random teams of lab testers from Tandem Technologies, a RANDOM.ORG company, were responsible for shuffling the decks before sealing the 2 decks and giving them to Melissa during the commercial break. So now, there are 12 7s in the 2 sets of playing cards to deal with, and if you are lucky enough to get 3 of those 7s in a row, totaling 21, and you'll win the Lucky 7 Super Jackpot, which always starts off with this...
Dean: It's a new car!
(Audience Cheers and Applause)
It's the 2023 Honda Civic LX Sedan. Features a 2.0-liter engine, six-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. This is the Honda Civic! And it's a great prize worth $25,745, and...
$5,000 in cash, bringing the total of the Lucky 7 Super Jackpot to...
ANY 21 JACKPOT: $2500
BLACKJACK BONUS: $10000
SUPER JACKPOT: $30,745
(Bell Clangs)
$30,745!
(Audience Cheers and Applause)
DK: And while we're at it, since that getting 21 in this match is a little tougher with more cards to play with, we're going to add a nice little bonus. The first player to score the first 21 in any combination in this match will receive this as a bonus.
Dean: It's a set of Kitchen Appliances!
(Audience Applause)
Furnish your kitchen with these great Kenmore appliances, which include an all-electric range, side-by-side refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher, all finished in fine stainless steel. It's a prize package worth $5,740!
(Audience Applause)
DK: Thanks, Dean! Oh, and incidentally, every match the Lucky 7 Super Jackpot isn't won, we'll add a prize into it, and for every 5 matches the Super Jackpot isn't won, we'll add $2,500 in the Super Jackpot. And if you are the champion, and you win 5 matches in a row, and you'll automatically win the Lucky 7 Super Jackpot.
The Blackjack Table is set and ready to go!
And here are the two sets of playing cards. The Yellow Starshell set and the Blue Seashell set. George, since you've won the Casino Blackjack portion, you will get to decide which set we are going to play first.
